Compare and contrast the new scientific knowledge of the 19th century with that of the 16th and 17th centuries.
Less attention to astrology and less emphasis on industrial advances
Many medical advances (ether and chloroform, pasteurization, Lister and carbolic acid) and a shift to preventative medicine
theoretical advances in pure sciences- thermodynamics (the theory took off after the invention of the steam engine), Faraday (generator, electromagnetic induction), Medeleyev (periodic table), evolution
Effects spanned more of the socio-economic classes than previously (materialism)
